Laverne, Shirley, Squiggy, and the Big Ragoo have all passed on, and Lenny's jacket is now sadly accurate.

RIP Cindy Williams.
Laverne and Shirley was a huge hit. So big, they made a Saturday morning cartoon out of it.

It was because he cut electricity out of his life.

Only 7 sitcoms have been #1 in the annual Nielsens two or more times: All in the Family (5 times), The Cosby Show (5), I Love Lucy (4), The Beverly Hillbillies (2), Laverne & Shirley (2), Seinfeld (2), and The Big Bang Theory (2).

The Conversation is a masterpiece and her role in it is unforgettable and chilling.

Her and Penny Marshall both died at 75.
I've only recently come to appreciate L&S but the pair of them were so good on it. One of the great TV duos.

Great talent elevates things to a new level. It’s a simple show, but the entire ensemble turned it into something special.

I recently watched the short lived Nathan Filllion show Drive.& was happy to see her pop up in a few episodes. RIP

Penny also died at 75. Strange

She also played the mom in Dweezil Zappa's short-lived CBS sitcom, 'A Normal Life,' alongside Max Gail as the dad...

My cousins are about 5-7 years older than me and when we were kids, they used to always watch a bunch of 70s shows that aired regularly as reruns in the 90s. A few of those shows were Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley and Three’s Company. I can’t say I loved watching any of those shows but I still have nostalgia and fond memories when I think of them.

RIP to Cindy. I recently learned that she still had Boo Boo Kitty (in her lingerie drawer - in an interview, she mentioned that he fit in there, and it was a nice, soft bed for him). I wonder if he's gonna be buried with her, or if he gets passed down to someone in the family?
I loved L&S, but I remember good ol' BBK most of all.

By complete random coincidence, I just happened to see an old late 79s Johnny Carson episode with her as a guest. She hadn’t crossed my mind more than a handful of times in my life and a day later this news hits.
I know it’s kind of an observer bias phenomenon when this happens, but it still blows my mind when it does.

Latter_Feeling2656 t1_j6nkawk wrote
No, Andy was just No. 1 once, and I think it was the very last season long after Barney was gone.
EauDeUpdog t1_j6o0qyc wrote
No. He died in 2021.. I think it’s just the Fonz and Lenny. But Fonzie was just a small recurring character. Not a regular.

really? i didn't think last season w/o barn, was that great

Well damn.
Shouts out to her roles in American Graffiti and The Conversation. People tend to only think of her in terms of Laverne & Shirley because of how huge that show was, and how key she was to its success, and it's led to a lot of people forgetting that in the early-to-mid 70s she was instrumental in helping people like George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola make some of the best films of their careers.
